Who Are Anthony Evans III’s Parents? Meet the Family of Georgia’s WR

Anthony Evans III’s college commitment process was not a piece of cake for him. After spending some time at Converse High School, Evans announced his commitment to Oklahoma. But wait, there’s more to it, as the wide receiver later flipped to Georgia for his collegiate journey. Evans, who was a highly sought-after player in his class, found it difficult to choose one final school from the thirty programs.

During his commitment period, he even said, “I get a whole bunch of texts daily from coaches, and they show love.” He further added that if he could, then he would go to every university that has offered him, but he can only choose one, and that’s why it was a tough decision. However, one factor that might have helped him choose is that his mom and grandmother are both Georgia fans. 5-foot-11 and 165 lbs, Evans was born and raised in Converse, Texas, by his parents.

there is no information available about his dad’s personal or professional life, Evans has shared some insight about his mom. He recalls that when he got an offer to play for the Dwangs, he asked receiver coaches to repeat that for his mom. Isabel Adams, his mom, who hails from Georgia, could not control her excitement to see her son on the team cause she is a lifelong Georgia fan.

When Evans decided to visit the UGA campus sometime after receiving the offer, his entire family went with him. His grandmother, who was also a Georgia fan and had hope that Evans would end up in Georgia, and his father, who was traveling to Athens for the first time, joined him. His uncle, who is a huge Georgia fan and is overjoyed to see him in Athens, also traveled with them. Everyone in his family liked the place and had a chit-chat with the coaches as well. While referring to the event, Evan said, “When I went up to Georgia, it felt like home.”

He added that despite his mom being a Georgia fan, she even advised him to choose what’s best suited for him and told him to avoid thinking about what his mom likes or what his dad says.
